I downloaded and tried the free version of embrio - it's quite neat although you have to get into the way of thinking. I followed the tutorial to create the classic "Blink" program and it does work.

However, there doesn't seem to be a way of viewing the effective code and when you press the button to compile and download the code, it tells you that you need a full licence. So, is it worth it?

I have gone through some of the tutorials and see what it was about. It takes Arduino code then cleans with encapsulated code formalizing inputs and outputs. This allows the blocks to be diagrammed visually. The downside is the libraries you use need to be put into this frame work before usage. Not too great. Why did he not use classes that would be more natural instead of this funky blocking stuff?

I took a look to the site and as a matter of fact it sounds great (but not new at all). What put me a bit more prejudicial is the fact that they sell the IDE, and frankly I think it is not the worth.

Take in account that the same arduino IDE has its basis on the original Processing IDE and on top of it there is a language (I don't remember the name but I have used it in past) that works in the same way of embrio, part of the tools for the development of hardware / software integrated elements, Arduino an so on that is absolutely free and open source.
